The Soil-Plant System in Relation to Inorganic Nutrition focuses on the soil-plant system in relation to the inorganic nutrition of plants. More specifically, the book investigates the dynamics of ion uptake in relation to those physical and chemical processes that must be considered both in understanding any observation made on the soil-plant system and in predicting the results of any stress placed on the system. <br>This volume is organized into two parts encompassing seven chapters and begins with an overview of the inorganic nutrition of plants grown in the soil-plant system.

A tropical rain forest : a study of irradiation and ecology at El Verde, Puerto Rico by
Howard T Odum(
Book
)
14 editions published between 1970 and 1972 in English and held by 427 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
A 10,000-curie ¹³⁷Cs gamma source was placed by helicopter at the center of a selected site in the Luquillo Experimental Forest in Puerto Rico. The source was operated for three months after which it was retracted into its shield and eventually removed. Immediately upon termination of the irradiation, detailed effects studies began with quantitative comparisons of the status of the main site before irradiation with that developing subsequently. The studies described in this volume deal with the impact of gamma radiation on species and also with the more abstract phenomenology associated with the modification of ecological systems
